This is the moving account of a nurse charged with establishing a hospital at Belsen concentration camp at the end of World War II. When British troops arrived at the camp in April 1945, they found 40,000 desperately ill men, women, and children and 10,000 unburied dead bodies. Chief Nurse Muriel Knox Doherty arrived soon after with the task of creating a hospital, scrounging for supplies, and saving as many of the camp survivors as possible. In letters written to her mother and friends in Australia, she describes her experiences at Belsen in moving detail. She tells of the plight of Jewish survivors unable to return home and the appeals from desperate families trying to find their loved ones among the former prisoners. One of the few accounts of a concentration camp written by a non-Jew, this remarkable collection of letters is illustrated with period photographs and striking drawings by one of the Belsen survivors.
